My Koda Trace is finally finished!

This is my Koda Trace for my last module of the year and it is 3x A1 size. It will go onto a machine which shines through a UV light and through the marks will imprint onto a screen which I then print onto fabric with. Very happy that it is finally finished, and will be even more happier when I have printed it all. Let me know what you think!

Vintage

I love the anything that has a vintage style, I think its so original and a great way to bring back old styles. There are so many different things that can be vintage. I think I'm not the only one who would love to have a good rummage through an old abandoned vintage home full of antiques!

Inspiration!

There are so many things out there and around us that can inspire us to do what we love or even something that  you have never done before. I love these images they inspire me to think about life and the work I create. Do they inspire you?
